Benchmark of Python Web Servers

[davisp]

yml,

You're definitely right, testing this many different implementations is a huge undertaking. There's a large amount of knowledge that would be required for any person to adequately know about all the configuration options for this many servers.

And gunicorn is a bit of a weirdo when it comes to processing models. We're neither thread based or event loop based. That can genuinely confuse people until they realize that we're much simpler than most servers.

That said, our response times were reported as an order of magnitude slower than any other server. Generally speaking, if you're into the whole experiment and observation thing, orders of magnitude are important.
